Abstract

A method and a device to generate an area of a mixture of fluids by introducing media having at least a different physical or chemical property into a boundary layer of a surface using vortices are provided. The method and the device can be applied to moving vehicles or walls of containers surrounding streaming fluids, the fluids being especially mixtures of gases, liquids or combinations of gases and liquids.
